Lyrics

No vengo a pedirte amores,
ya no quiero tu cariño
si una vez te amè en la vida
no lo vuelvas a decir
Me contaron tus amigos
que te encuentras muy solito
que maldices a tu suerte
porque piensas mucho en mi ES POR ESO QUE HE VENIDO
A REIRME DE TU PENA
YO QUE A DIOS LE HABIA PEDIDO
QUE TE UNDIERA MAS QUE AMI
DIOS ME HA DADO ESE CAPRICHO
Y HE VENIDO A VERTE UNDIDO
PARA HACERTE YO EN LA VIDA
COMO TÙ ME HICISTE A MI
Ya lo vez como el destino
todo cobra y nada olvida
ya lo vez como un cariño
nos arrastra y nos humilla
QUE BONITA ES LA VENGANZA
CUANDO DIOS NOS LA CONCEDE
YA SABIA QUE EN LA REVANCHA
TE TENIA QUE HACER PERDER
ahì te dejo mi DESPRECIO,
yo que tanto te adoraba
pa' que veas cual es el precio
de las LEYES DEL QUERER

Lyrics translation

I'm not here to ask you for love,
I don't want your love anymore
if I once loved you in my life
don't say it again.
Your friends told me.
that you find yourself very alone
curse your luck
because you think a lot about me that'S why I came
TO LAUGH AT YOUR GRIEF
I WHO HAD ASKED GOD
MAY I UNITE YOU MORE THAN I LOVE
GOD HAS GIVEN ME THAT WHIM
AND I'VE COME TO SEE YOU UNDIDO
TO MAKE YOU ME IN LIFE
LIKE YOU DID TO ME
You already see it as Destiny
everything charges and nothing forgets
you already see it as a sweetheart
it drags us and humiliates us
HOW BEAUTIFUL IS REVENGE
WHEN GOD GRANTS IT TO US
I KNEW IN THE REMATCH
I HAD TO MAKE YOU LOSE
there I leave you my contempt,
I loved you so much
pa ' you see what the price is
of the laws of will
